  1. Configuring Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 on VMware before Oracle 11gR2 installation

  2. Login as root and connect the installation DVD.

  3. Open a terminal window and install additional required packages. [root@localhost ~]# cd “/media/Enterprise Linux dvd 20100405/Server” [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh binutils-2.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-33* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh elfutils-libelf-0* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh elfutils-libelf-devel-* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh elfutils-libelf-devel-static-* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh gcc-4.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh gcc-c++* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh glibc-2.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh glibc-common-2.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh glibc-devel-2.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh glibc-headers-2.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh unixODBC-devel-2.*

  4. install additional required packages (continue). [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh kernel-headers* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh kernel-debug* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh ksh-2* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh libaio-0.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh libaio-devel-0.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh libgcc-4.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh libgomp* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh libstdc++-4.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh libstdc++-devel-4.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh make-3.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh oracleasm* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh oracleasm-support* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh sysstat-7.* [root@localhost Server]# rpm -Uvh unixODBC-2.*

  5. Modify /etc/xinetd.d/gssftp to allow ftp logins by root (remove -a option.)

  6. Restart xinetd.

  7. Create /u01/staging directory, transfer oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.i386.rpm file there using FTP (or any other method), and install the package. [root@localhost ~]# mkdir /u01/staging [root@localhost ~]# chown grid:oinstall /u01/staging <FTP TRANSFER> [root@localhost ~]# cd /u01/staging [root@localhost staging]# ls ora* oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.i386.rpm [root@localhost staging]# rpm -Uvh oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.i386.rpm

  8. Why install VMware tools? • Improved video performance • Mouse synchronization with host OS • Improved mouse performance • Copy and paste between host OS and guest OS • Not required to be installed

  9. Install VMware Tools.

  10. Install VMware Tools (continue).

  11. Run vmware-config-tools.pl script. 

  12. Create users and groups. groupadd -g 501 oinstall groupadd -g 502 dba groupadd -g 503 oper groupadd -g 504 asmadmin groupadd -g 505 asmdba groupadd -g 506 asmoper useradd -m -d /home/oracle  -u 501 -g oinstall -G dba,oper,asmdba -s /bin/bash -c "Oracle Software Owner" oracle useradd -m -d /home/grid -u 502 -g oinstall -G asmadmin,asmdba,asmoper -s /bin/bash -c "Grid Infrastructure Owner" grid

  13. Create filesystem directory structure; set proper ownerships and permissions. Set passwords for users grid and oracle. mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db1 mkdir -p /u01/app/11.2.0/grid mkdir -p /u01/app/grid chown -R grid:oinstall /u01 chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app/oracle chmod -R 775 /u01 passwd grid passwd oracle

  14. Increase shell limits for user oracle. /etc/security/limits.conf: oracle soft nproc 2047oracle hard nproc 16384oracle soft nofile 1024oracle hard nofile 65536grid soft nproc 2047grid hard nproc 16384grid soft nofile 1024grid hard nofile 65536 /etc/pam.d/login session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so

  15. Modify kernel parameters and activate changes at runtime. /etc/sysctl.conf fs.file-max = 6815744 fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576 kernel.shmmni = 4096 kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128 net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500 net.core.rmem_default = 262144 net.core.rmem_max = 4194304 net.core.wmem_default = 262144 net.core.wmem_max = 1048586 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 262144 262144 262144 net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4194304 4194304 4194304 Execute the following command: /sbin/sysctl -p

  16. Configure hangcheck timer kernel module and activate changes at runtime.  /etc/modprobe.conf options hangcheck-timer hangcheck_tick=30 hangcheck_margin=600 /etc/rc.local /sbin/modprobe hangcheck-timer  Execute the following command: /sbin/modprobe -v hangcheck-timer

  17. Modify /etc/hosts. Replace the IP addresses to your IP addresses.  127.0.0.1                localhost.localdomain              localhost 10.66.0.226              tom.localhost tom 10.66.0.228              tom-vip.localhost tom-vip 10.10.10.26              tom-priv.localhost tom-priv 10.66.0.227              jerry.localhost jerry 10.66.0.229              jerry-vip.localhost jerry-vip 10.10.10.27              jerry-priv.localhost jerry-priv 10.66.0.230              acme.localhost              acme

  18. Assign rules to control ownership and permission attributes on shared storage devices. /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules KERNEL=="sdb1", OWNER="grid", GROUP="oinstall", MODE="0640" KERNEL=="sdc1", OWNER="grid", GROUP="oinstall", MODE="0640" KERNEL=="sdd1", OWNER="grid", GROUP="oinstall", MODE="0640" KERNEL=="sde1", OWNER="grid", GROUP="oinstall", MODE="0640" Activate the change at runtime by execuing: /sbin/start_udev

  19. Increase user limits for users grid and oracle. /etc/profile (and/or /etc/bashrc) if [ \$USER = "oracle" ] || [ \$USER = "grid" ]; then    if [ \$SHELL = "/bin/ksh" ]; then        ulimit -p 16384        ulimit -n 65536    else        ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536    fi fi

  20. "Hack" nslookup to avoid installation errors. 1.Rename the original nslookup file to nslookup.orig: mv /usr/bin/nslookup /usr/bin/nslookup.orig 2.  Create the new nslookup file with the contents below: #!/bin/bash # Replace 10.66.0.114 with your primary DNS # Replace 10.66.0.230 with your SCAN IP address HOSTNAME=${1} if [[ $HOSTNAME = "acme" ]]; then    echo "Server:         10.66.0.114"    echo "Address:        10.66.0.114#53"    echo "Non-authoritative answer:"    echo "Name:   acme"    echo "Address: 10.66.0.230" else    /usr/bin/nslookup.orig $HOSTNAME fi 3.    Change the privileges on the newly created file: chmod 755  /usr/bin/nslookup

  21. Format shared storage drives sdb and sdc using fdisk command.

  22. Repeat for storage drives sdd and sde.

  23. Deactivate the NTP service. /sbin/service ntpd stop chkconfig ntpd off mv /etc/ntp.conf /etc/ntp.conf.original rm /var/run/ntpd.pid chkconfig --list ntpd

  24. Create new virtual machine jerry as a copy of virtual machine tom. • Shutdown virtual machine tom. • Create Windows directory C:\Virtual Machines\jerry  • Copy all contents of C:\Virtual Machines\tom to C:\Virtual Machines\jerry  • Rename all files with names that contain string “tom” to replace it with “jerry”.  • Edit file C:\Virtual Machines\jerry\jerry.vmx and replace all occurrences of string “tom” with string “jerry”. • Go to the VMware Server Home Page.  • Click on “Add Virtual Machine to Inventory” in the “Commands” section.  • Select "standard" -> "jerry" -> "jerry.vmx" and click "OK". • Select “I _copied it” on the warning pane and click “OK”

  25. Start newly created Virtual Machine "jerry". Login as root and open Network Configuration window.

  26. Deactivate and delete entries for eth0.bak and eth1.bak.

  27. Edit “eth0”. On the “Ceneral” tab enter the “Address” and “Subnet mask” to match the entries in /etc/hosts. 

  28. On the “Hardware Device” tab click on “Probe” button, then click “OK”.

  29. Repeat for “eth1”.

  30. Repeat for “eth1” (continue).

  31. On the DNS tab, specify “Hostname”, “DNS search path”, “Primary DNS”, “Secondary DNS”, and "DNS search path"  fields. The last 3 are optional.

  32. Save network configuration and exit Network Configuration window. Restart the network. 1.    <Ctl-S>; <Ctl-Q> 2.   service network restart

  33. Start tom, login as root, and run "oracleasm configure -i" command to configure the Oracle ASM library driver.

  34. Run “oracleasm init” to load ASMLib kernel module and create/mount ASMlib filesystem.

  35. Run "oracleasm createdisk" command to create 4 disks, CRS, DATA1, DATA2, and FRS1.

  36. Restart "jerry" and repeat the first 2 steps Then run “oracleasm scandisks” to  recognize the new volumes.

  37. Modify .bashrc for user grid on "tom". user grid: export EDITOR=vi export ORACLE_SID=+ASM1 export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/grid export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/11.2.0/grid export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=tom.localhost export PATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin export TMP=/tmp export TEMP=/tmp export TMPDIR=/tmp umask 022

  38. Modify .bashrc for user oracle on "tom". user oracle: export EDITOR=vi export ORACLE_SID=acmedb11 export ORACLE_UNQNAME=acmedb export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/db1 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=tom.localhost export PATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin export TMP=/tmp export TEMP=/tmp export TMPDIR=/tmp umask 022

  39. Modify .bashrc for user grid "jerry". user grid: export EDITOR=vi export ORACLE_SID=+ASM2 export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/grid export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/11.2.0/grid export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=tom.localhost export PATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin export TMP=/tmp export TEMP=/tmp export TMPDIR=/tmp umask 022            

  40. Modify .bashrc for user oracle on "jerry". user oracle: export EDITOR=vi export ORACLE_SID=acmedb12 export ORACLE_UNQNAME=acmedb export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/db1 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=tom.localhost export PATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin export TMP=/tmp export TEMP=/tmp export TMPDIR=/tmp umask 022
